Computer Systems - Tutorial 6

1. Tabulate the values of the output variables X, Y and Z in Figure Q.1 below for all possible input variables A, B and C.

Figure Q.1

2. For the circuit of question 1, find a Boolean expression for the output X in terms of the inputs A, B, and C.

3. Draw logic diagrams using AND, OR and NOT gates only, to implement the following Boolean expressions.

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

(e)

4. Convert the following expressions to sum-of-product form (the more usual Boolean form):-

(a)

(b)

(c)

5. Use a truth table to prove the two De Morgan’s theorems, namely:-

and

6. Use De Morgan’s theorem to re-design the circuit of Question 1 using NAND gates only.
